The Magic Tree

Oh come won’t you accompany me,

On a stroll through the park,

Tonight to visit the magic tree,

And our tragic happiness we hold in our hearts,

We’ll leave tonight when all is silent,

The night will be our disguise,

As we escape from all the shit,

That we face in our everyday lives.

Deep into the park we stride,

Further from our dismal homes,

To reach the spot as old as time,

And a world of our own.

So come let’s visit the magic tree,

To a place where we belong,

As our hearts are filled with melancholy glee,

A place where we can do no wrong.

They say we are vicious,

Carved only from stone,

Because our emotions,

They refuse to condone.

They mock our dreams,

Tell us were better off dead,

And they can’t hear the screams,

That echo through our heads.

The magic tree comforts us,

It fills our minds with peace,

A place where we can learn to trust,

And love this misery so sweet.

Come follow us to freedom,

From this sick reality,

To our Garden of Eden,

At the foot of the magic tree.

Here we are with others,

Just like you and I,

Forced to live and suffer,

With those feelings they must hide.

In this dark and dismal place,

The tree will give us hope,

A chance to finally escape,

All we need is those two ropes,

Tie them onto the branch

Then we’ll join the magic tree,

And those poor souls who never had a chance,

Just like you and me.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
